CALLS MEXICANS TO
NATIVE COUNTRY
FOR STATE SENATOR
WINSOR We are authorized to an
nounce Mulford Winsor as a candi

the will of the Democratic party at
the approaching primary election. '
Eliseo Arredondo, ambas
sador of the defacto Mexican
government to Washington
is calling upon citizens of his
country in cities of the South
west to return to their coun
try as a measure of safety in
view of the strained relations
between Carranza and this
country.
This makes it look as i
there would be a scrap, al
.though it is only what the
administration at washing
ton has been telling Ameri
can citizens in Mexico for the
past several years.
As a call to strictly Mexi
can citizens it is a matter o
ordinary diplomatic proced
ure and nobody should fee
bad about it. The call might
as well be heeded also, how
ever, by any Spanish-Ameri
can hyphenates who are not
satisfied with life in the good
old U. S. A, as it is lived. We
believe that there are few
such.
WILSON IS GUILTY
It is charged by the Ger
man-American propagandists
that President Wilson is i
nativist, says theTucson Star
It is useless for Democrats
or Americans to deny it.
They had best meet the is
sue bravely, urge any plausi
ble explanations which they
may and throw themselves
on the mercy of the country.
In bringing this charge the
German - Americans have
found the president's most
vulnerable spot. There is
documentary evidence to
support the charge, so it will
be seen that Democrats, and
Americans, would be wasting
time and exposing them
selves to foreign ridicule if
they sought to disprove the
charge.
A nativist, it appears, is an
American who believes in
American institutions and
who prefers them frankly to
the kultur of any foreign na
tion. He gives his allegiance
to no country except Ameir
ca. He insists that a citizen
cannot be loyal to America if
he does not hold that the in
terests of America are first
to be considered. He be
lieves that Americans are eng
titled to exercise rights which
are accorded them by the
law of nations.
Wilson stands convicted of
all these things. The case of
the German-Americans is
complete. Not only is he a
nativist, but he is an anti
hyphenate, so it will be seen
that his crime has been de
liberate. It is true, however, that
there are extenuating cir
cumstances. For instance,
he was born in the United
States, so his offensive poli
tical beliefs might be said to
be the product of environ
ment, of example.
Perhaps he was deluded by
Teading the history of the
United States, showing that
patriots, or nativists, prefer
red death, chains and slav-
r ' J ; j.1
ery to foreign aomiiiaiiun
and took the hazard with eng
thusiasm.
Perhaps he was carrier
away by the fatuous speech
of Patrick Henry

PDLIT GAL ANNOUNCEMENTS
FOR SHERIFF
GREENLEAF We are authorized t
announce Sheriff Mel Greenleaf for
re-nomination, subject to the will of
the Democratic primary election.
Genearl Carranza has tri
fled over-long with a matter
which he is not big enough to
understand or to manage
and now he finds himself
confronted with the ultimate
aspect of it and he must de
cide for the generations ol
Mexicans. If he makes war
upon the United-States he
will rob that European mon
arch of the title of The Big
gest Fool in Chritsendom."
Unfortunately, his previous
actions do not give assurance
that he is not deliberately a
candidate for the honor.
The regret is that he has
placed himself in the position
where he must answer for all
Mexico. It is criminal that
he and his subordinates .have
told the oeoole of Mexico
that Americans are cowards,
that England has already pro
tested against American in
tervention in Mexico and
that Latin-America will stand
with Carranza.
Mexico has been dieted on
lies for a conflict that can
mean only the deepest humil
iation for Mexico. For Car
ranza it will mean loss of po
sition and prestige for if war
comes it will not be Carranza
that will emerge the chief
imong the chiefs. War will
only reveal his utter incapa
city for position and leave
him shorn of every peacock
Feather which has been his
orincipal appeal to Mexicans.
However, Carranza is only
an incident.

every part of a man. Stand by your
president; stand by your country, and
don't be so narrow between the eyes
that you can't see anything worthy
jl emulation in tne man you oppose
from a political standpoint. In a
(By B. F. Fly) crisis like the one now confronting
Mayor Thompson, of Chicago, is so us let s all stand shoulder to shoul-
disloyalto this country as to declare atiI- " patient; be numane; be just;
hat President Wilson's order to mobi- out aoove au "ngs try in every
lize all the state guards is "cheap wa uiat vou Know now t0 keep our
nnlitics." A man who wnnld irivR nt- country out of an unholy and unneces
terance to such an expression at this sarv war
critical period in our controversy with 11 unnappny we are torced into war,
Mexico is not half as loyal to the because of such idiotic fools as Mayor
Stars and Stripes as were the half Thompson and irresponsible Mexicans
lozen anarchists who were hanged in acrss the line, then let's all be ready
Chicago for inciting ignorant people
o riot and other crimes.
A good strong bunch of real Ameri
can citizens should, take Mayor
Thompson and all of his kind and
nake examples of them.
It is just such talk as given utter
ance to by Mayor Thompson that has
caused foreign nations to think the
United States as a whole does not
uphold the president.' If the same
expression were uttered in England,
Germany, France, Aucsria, Italy or
Russia, the man so uttering it would
be taken out and shot within an hour
thereafter.
It is almost time for Uncle Sam to
deal out a few doses of the same kind
of medicine, and the sooner it is
done the better this country will be.
Nor am I saying this simply because
I favor President Wilson's re-election
I was just as loyal to Roosevelt arid
just as loyal to Taft as I am now loypj
to Wilson, for after a presidential
election the man who wins the race
is MY PRESIDENT, even though I
may not have voted for him. With
me it is: "My country, right or wrong,
my country all the time."

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There Is only one way tp cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed condi
tion of the mucous lining- of the Eusta
chian Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or Imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed.
Deafness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which Is nothing but an. Inflamed condi
tion of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Collars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that,
cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.
